upper air. Rain conveys vast quanti-
ties of electricity to tho earth. 1t is
only the surplus electricity that passes
as thunder-bolt.
My theory of what lightning-rod
should be is as follows: Two-inch
pipes laid along the ridge-pole and
uniting in one two-inch pipe at either
end of the building, where it may be
bent off from the building it is intended
to protect. Such lightning conductor
would be strong enough to withstand
any ordinary shock, and of sufficient
capacity to conduct off the greatest
lightning bolt. 1t needs no spikes or
points to draw the electricity any more
than telegraph wire. The points in
this case are nonsense as we'll. i have
frequently measured the mark made by
the lightning in it's passage to the earth
down oak trees, and L find it pretty
uniform in width, and usually about
two inchee, often less, but seldom
more.-H. II. Veitch, IN Boston Cul-
tirdtOr.

Origin Of the Screw.

1t is not clearly known how far the
mechanical powers were known to the
ancients. There is no doubt that they
comprehended the lever, the wheel
and axle, and the pulley, and an ac-
qua 'ntance with the principle of the
Inclined plane seems to have been
necessary to the Egyptians in moving
the huge blocks of stone of which the
pyramids are built. Archimedes,
about 236 b. c., invented pumping
screw, or spiral-shaped cylinder, for
raising water. The writings of this
mechanician and philosopher form the
clearest index we have to the extent of
knowledge we have Of his time, and,
indeed, his own intelligence was SO far
ahead of that of his contemporaries
that much of his reasoning was not
fully established as a part of the
worlds stock of knowledge until CEN
turtles after his death. Apparently
Archimedes did not understand the in
clined plane, for he makes no direct
mention of it, and we have no evidence
to show that it was included in the
knowledge of mechanics possessed by
the Romans. The true discovery of
the use of the inclined plane dates
from the latter part of the sixteenth
century, when the minds of men were
just awakening from their long sleep
during the dark ages. The discovery
is generally ascribed to Calico, but
Stevinus, one of his contemporaries,
mechanician of Holland, was the frs
to explain in treatise the true theory
of the power. The screw is the appli-
cation of the inclined plane, as may be
seen by winding a triangular piece of
paper around cylinder. The screw
and the wedge are alluded to by more
than one writer of the sixteenth centu-
ry, showing that knowledge of these
secondary powers formed part of the
revival of physical science in which
Calico too, most important part, if
he did not wholly inspire it. The
principle of the screw propeller was
first enumerated 10y Hooke in 1iSl,
though it was not successfully applied
to the movement Of vessels until the
nineteenth century. The first Use of

Formative Effects Of Different Kinds
0f Athiptirs

What the gymnasium is doing for the
strength and vigor of the masses in
some of our institutions of learning
may be inferred from single illustra-
ton taken from the records at Harvard
University.
In the year 1880. seven hundred and
seventy-six men were physically exam
med. The strongest man out of this
number showed in strength of lungs,
back, legs, chest and arms, as indicated
on the chart, grand total of 675.2. At
the close of the summer term of the
present year, the highest strength test
recorded was l,272.S, and there were
over two hundred men in college whose
total strength test surpassed the high
est test of 1880. This general gym
nasium work is therefore reducing the
one-sided development once so common
with athletic specialists.
1t must not be forgotten, however,
that there is development peculiar to
the runner, Jumper, wrestler, oarsman,
gymnast, ball-player, heavy-lifter, etc,
and any one familiar with athletics at
the present day can easily recognize
one of these specialists. The same
training that produced those matchless
specimens of human development en-
bodied in the statues of the Gladiator,
the Athlete, Hercules, Apollo, and
Mercury of old, would produce the
same results under similar circum-
stances at the present time.
With every kind of physical exercise,
the qualities at first required are the
qualities at length developed. Speed
and endurance are required of the run
ner, and these are the qualities that
come to him by practice. In a like
manner, skill and activity come TO the
gymnast and ball-player; and strength
and stability to the oarsman and weight
thrower. Most of these qualities are
accompanied by physical character
istics. If it were not for the recognized
tendency of certain exercises to pro-
duce certain results, it would be impos-
sible TO prescribe special work for
individual cases. All men, however,
who practice athletics for the same
length of time, and under similar con-
ditions, do not attain identical results
in their physical proportions or the
same degree of success in their athletic
achievements.
In order to illustrate some of the dis
tinguishing features that characterize
the development of successful athletes,
l have selected representative members
of the different athletic organizations
in the universities of Yale and Harvard,
few of whom distinguished them
selves, within the last two years, by
breaking all previous college records
for certain events. The photographs
of these men, i'll spite of their dissimi-
larity, show us certain characteristics
common to certain figures, and marked
peculiarities of another kind will ac-
company others. Some of these char
acteristics are not readily detected by
the eye, but appear distinctly in the
charts. ID. H. Sargent, N. d.. IN

What Is Refinement.

One hears much talk Of this desirable
quality nowadays, but the idea of 1t is often
very vague. What is refinement?
We are not speaking of those who think
that it consists of q studied quietness oil
dress and manner. Some very refined peo-
pie dress shockingly, and they even have
quite loud voices, and yet their good breed
ing is patent TO all the world.
We once met whole family Of delicate
ladies at fashionable summer resort on
the banks of the Hudson, whose idea of
refinement was languor and ill-heaith.
They thought it was just too vulgar to be
healthy and strong; quite too mannish in
deed in lady!
Among some people, size is thought to
have good deal to do with refinement. 1t
is unrefined to be large, gross to be fat;
coarse to have weight and monstrous to
have prominent features. A large neck,
large cheeks or lips are especially opposed
to all refinement.
Now, little people arc certainly very cum
ming, very curious, but we can not all be
faiues-nor do we wish it, Only fancy a
whole world of these little creatures!
Why, even trade would languish. Smaller
quantities of everything would be needed,
from cloth and flannel all the way down to
oysters and buckwheat cakes. No, large
people are necessary to keep the world
moving.
We once knew of fashionable lady
who liked her clergyman because he
preached such refined sermons. When a
distinguished literary man died recently,
we were told he was not a refined person.
Well, perhaps he was not, but he was so
distinguished in other ways that really we
had not thought of his refinement. We
would lust as soon have asked whether st.
Paul was refined man. or whether Isaiah
went to ancient Babylon to acquire "good
form, as some people go to London now
for that purpose.
There are, we believe, many people in
very humble stations in life who are truly
refined in their feelings who are quite I'M
polished outwardly. Their hearts are
right; they have that consideration for
others which is the very basis of refine
| ment.
There are also others in good society
whose natural sweetness of disposition
constantly shows itself in kind and gentle
words and deeds toward all. No effort is
needed on their part to be courteous and
amiable, for they feel SO, and naturally
their outward manners are but the reflex
of that which is within. Such persons are
charming; they like everybody and every
body likes them. We all know few such,
and are thankful.
The chief desideratum seems TO be a
good heart. If we truly love our neighbors
we can not fail to be kind and sweet to
Them. And if we are indifferent, all the
care we take Of our manners, all our
studied refinement, all our stylish CONVEX
sation will be as dust and ashes.-HOme

Damp Weather and rheumatism.
"Rheumatism ?"

''Rheumatism ?"
eyes, Doctor. Ny shoulders ache,
and 1 can hardly raise my arms to my
head.
ct is bad weather for rheumatism.
"Why should il bo?" queried the
sufferer. II haven't caught any cold.
L wore an overcoat, and the dampness
hasn't chilled me.
'Tll tell you why" answered the
physician, who is well-known lectur-
er in one of the leading medical col
leges of this city. 1.-The dampness of
the atmosphere MAKES the air lighter.
This affects its pressure on the body.
OF course that produces temporary
disturbance of the system.
But why should that affect my
rheumatism
ANY disturbance of the system af-
fects the most sensitive parts of man.
If he has rheumatism it brings on
sharp pa ms; if he has corns or bun
ion, those give him trouble, and if a
nerve is exposed in one of his teeth he
is at once informed of that fact"
''Then there is really reason for
those pains in damp weather"
Indeed there is. To q sufferer from
such disorders there is no surer barom-
eter in the world than his aching mem
bers. "-NeU York Sun.

Nick Riddles Wit.

Nick Biddle was wit as we'll as a
financier. During session of the
Pennsylvania Legislature away back
in the 40's bill was up appropriating
a large sum for continuing the State
improvement. An honest but unlea-n-
ed member from Berks County was
hostile to the bill. and, in fact, opposed
to all State improvements. He knew
the wishes of his constituents, and lit
tie else. While the bill was under
consideration Mr.. Biddle moved an
ironical amendment appropriating
$4,000 for the improvement OF the
Alimentary Canal The member
from Berks was instantly on his feet
declaring his purpose to oppose any
appropriation for the Alimentary or
any other canal. The amendment was
instantly withdrawn, amidst the gen.
eral mirth of the members at the ex-
pense of the honest member from
Earka
